PIEVERSE's recent trend has allowed me to draw some lessons. To be honest, short-term trading is actually quite simple—just identify key levels and ride the wave, there's no need to hold on stubbornly. Many people always want to hold as long as possible, but they don't realize that the final returns are often better for those who take profits at the right time.
Here's a harsh reality: Altcoins themselves lack solid fundamental support, making valuation difficult to judge. Instead of studying the overall pattern and future prospects, it's better to focus on current price fluctuations. When trading contracts, you must understand what you're doing—not gambling on the long term, but capturing short-term opportunities.
The most important point: don't be greedy. Many people get caught in traps, and frankly, it's greed that causes it. Set stop-losses, define clear goals, and take profits when they come—this way, they won't trap you. We've already exited, and we've taken all the profits we should. You can continue if you want.

Taking profits is the real way to live; greed only traps people.

Taking profits is really more of a test of human nature than stopping losses, that's true.

*checks charts from 2017 altseason*
yep, this is exactly how the tulip farmers talked right before capitulation. "we're out, you continue" = the tell-tale sign we're hitting peak delusion. history really does rhyme.

Taking profits is the true way to win; greed is the root of all evil.

It's the same old story, sounds nice but in reality it's just gambling.

After this wave of gains, it's time to sell. Don't try to sell me on long-term value investing.

Taking profits really feels much better than holding on stubbornly; this guy's right.
